All Fabric Poi

Poi? What is Poi? POI is one of the best things you can ever discover, AND the Maori word for ball on a cord .

The POI was used, many years ago, by the indigenous Maori people of New Zealand to increase their flexibility and strength in their hands and arms as well as improving coordination.

Wahine (female) dancers perform the Maori POI, a dance performed with balls attached to flax strings, swung rhythmically. The POI dance was originally used by the Maori women for keeping their hands flexible for weaving and by the men for strength and coordination required during battle.

The above Fabric Poi are more thought of as International Poi . Hand made using a variety of modern fabrics and lasting materials.

Pendulum Poi - Flex?

What is the difference between flex and regular Pendulum Poi? The 'Flex' uses a 6mm Polyester Rope which as the name implies provides a more flexible cord.The regular Pendulum Poi uses a thicker 8mm Polyester Rope, which can help with vertical stalls or any moves requiring a stiffer rope/cord.

All Fabric Poi Reviews

Perfect for what a beginner needs"As a beginner I was looking around the web for awhile and managed to find this site. This product was exactly what I was looking for. Really glad it came with the tennis balls. I really enjoy learning poi with my new pair of sock poi :)"Shorty5111995, USA. [Verified Buyer]BRONZE Member since Oct 2018

Basic and very effective"I like the weight of the sand bags, as a beginner it really helps to feel the momentum of the poi. When I start to feel comfortable with a move, I switch to bean bags as the lighter weight helps polish the movement. Pro tip: Slip a pair of 1 wooden balls inside the handle end for some easy hand holds, a simple knot helps with length adjustment."Scsibutt, USA. [Verified Buyer]BRONZE Member since Sep 2018

Silk fan magic"I m so in love with my silk fans. The colours and fabric are just beautiful. They follow up email and instructional video were very helpful. I love my new flow toys! Insta brookestarflow"Brookie, Australia. [Verified Buyer]SILVER Member since Jul 2018

Not ideal for true beginners (like me)"Nice weight and balance with the counterweight. They are a bit painful if you hit yourself with them, so I bought sock poi to start practicing. I'll come back to these when I have more control."Oscar, United Kingdom. [Verified Buyer]SILVER Member since Sep 2018

Amazing! :)"I had order in an other web site a pair of poi and there were really bad quality so reading a lot of review I decide to order here in Home Of Poi (I already known this website thanks to Nick Woolsey, Playpoi) and I'm so mad of the sock poi that I receive! Really high quality and beautiful! I will order all my staff here!! Thank you!"Martiinadieneer, Italy. [Verified Buyer]BRONZE Member since Aug 2018

Great materials"I absolutely love these contact poi balls! I'm a beginner and I felt like I had so much more control with these. The price is also very pleasing. I'm a happy customer and would recommend these to anyone interested in poi. Added bonus is there was some many different cool colors to pick from."Tjbone0055, USA.

Aurora sock poi"Fantastic purchase! I have been doing poi a number of years now and have always practiced with my fire poi ( on chains )or the LED glow balls but these sock poi are a great investment for beginners and anyone wanting to refine their techniques...the stretchy material helps to slow the poi down so you can really focus on breaking down moves without getting smacked in the head by them..my fire poi has improved immensely since using these so I defiantly recommend them! Happy spinning!"Hayleytemblett, New Zealand. [Verified Buyer]BRONZE Member since Sep 2018

Sweet Training Poi"I was looking for a pair of durable, comfortable, non-stretchy sock poi that also looked good (not like I was just spinning with socks). I found all this in these nifty and inexpensive little poi! Great for training with before investing in more expensive light up poi. I'm a 5'6'' female with long arms and these work great for me- they'd be too long if I was any shorter but I suppose you could sew them to shorten them."Maureentaylor10, USA. [Verified Buyer]BRONZE Member since Jul 2018

Wonderful Poi!!"My order came faster than expected and the Poi are perfect! They came in their own carry pouch and they were the length I needed right out of the bag. The fingerloops are comfortable for long periods of spinning and the weight is perfect for stalls and other tricks! I always keep a little bag of poi in my purse and I love that these are poi that anyone can pick up and they love them as much as I do!"Hnkcooper74, USA. [Verified Buyer]SILVER Member since Jun 2018

Very nice Poi, very good service."I really love the poi! For practicing I asked whether I could have one green and one orange poi, which was absolutely no problem. I am very happy with my purchase. The only negative thing was that the delivery took longer than 6 weeks and i had to pay an additional 17eur!! of tariffs on my 57eur order. Adding this to the shipping cost of 10eur , i payed a total of 27eur to ship two pair of poi to Germany. Maybe keep that in mind before you order even though none of that is HomeOfPoi's fault ofc."Dmark04, Germany. [Verified Buyer]SILVER Member since May 2018

Perfect for practice"I've been using these poi to learn and they've been great - simple and easy to use, and still holding up after several months of hard use !"Malyonbimler, Australia. [Verified Buyer]BRONZE Member since Apr 2018
